Get in touch with your artistic side in this botanical sketching program on the Hunnewell Lawn. We’ll supply paper, pencils, and some blankets to sit on, while artist Erica Beade walks around offering artistic tips and tricks to participants. You are encouraged to bring any additional art supplies you would like to work with. This is a walk-up program so no registration is required: just show up any time between 12 and 2pm.
Erica Beade is an illustrator and educator focusing on observational drawing and specializing in science, health, and nature topics.
Accessibility: This program takes place on a flat, mowed lawn. Chairs will not be provided but you are welcome to take your work inside the Visitor Center if you don’t want to sit on the ground.
Audience: This program is appropriate for all ages.
